I started work on the farm! Even though the weather has been cold and wet, I'm really enjoying my days there and having a lot of fun.

Some of the fields, including some covered rows (the white stuff) of Brassica plants. | | |

I've also started up my first pair of knitted socks, using the beautiful, one of a kind hand-spun, hand-painted Cashmere Sock Party yarn by
Art-By-Ana of Smith Falls, Ontario.

Simple ribbed socks in a knit 3 purl 1 pattern. |
I'm still carving out chunks of time for learning to sew. My latest foray has been making a three zippered pouches from 2 fat quarters (tutorial
here). I find fact that the materials have polka dots and that I can use these as gifts and to organize stuff deeply satisfying!

Good practice for working with zippers! |
